Thanks. It looks much better than it did, although in the photos it doesn't look too bad to start with.

Hey Ty it was for sale on the side of the road on Old Cleveland Road East (I think) last year some time, I stopped and had a closer look at it.

Good to see it's looking nice/getting the treatment it deserves!

Nice to see another Rs2o0o pop up in the S/E.
Good luck with it.

That was the one. Had it for just over a year now and slowly improving on it. Must admit it was pretty good to start with....
Going to attempt to repair gearbox myself [:u] Apparently the spigot bearing needs replacing. Thought it was the diff, but the noise stops when clutch is engaged. Should be interesting!! Hopefully won't end in [8~2]
